2022 kpop wrap up

bro this year did not let up for a second

quick thank yous

wjsn chocome super yuppers thank you for making camp kpop again

fromis_9 dm was the first choreography i learned this year thanks for letting me be a sexy queen for a bit

pixy villain goth bitches rise up

twice celebrate yeah i cried when they renewed ok

viviz bop bop i didnt watch queendom2

ive love dive you already know

aespa illusion sluuuurp

b side spotlight

rocket punch in my world

red velvet bamboleo

purple kiss singles were ass but their bsides were gold

twice basics fuuuuck yeah dude

itzy racer vocal fry queens

wjsn done dont disband dont disband dont disband

fav post-izone project

i cant even tell you how much joy i get out of seeing most of the izone girlies thriving. yena, yuri, chaeyeon, and eunbi all made fantastic solo songs, wonyoung, yujin, chaewon, and sakura are tearing it up in ive and le sserafim respectively, and I even got peeks of nako and hitomi throughout the year. like, my tiny heart cant take it.

i loved eunbi in izone, i loved her when i watched produce 48 this year, and as a soloist in 2022 she absolutely impressed me. her icy voice and house instrumentals are just what i need and i thoroughly loved glitch and underwater

fav songs i changed my mind about

okay O.O literally had me by the throat until the let me be your super heroooo and then i lost interest. I think I had hit superhero mental saturation from existing on the internet for the last five years and hearing the word superhero was somehow the last straw & i was just like fuck this song. I was wrong dude. several months later, my bedtime edibles would hit and I'd be typing O.O into the youtube search bar multiple nights a week.

also

billlie gingaminga yo

I reluctantly got into boy groups this year

I got into kpop back in 2013 because the goth bar near me had a monthly kpop night. the bartenders were mean as fuck but made unbelievably strong drinks, and they would project the music videos onto a huge screen and my roommate and I would get sloshed and try to twerk to HyunA. It was a simple and beautiful time. but. the DJ who ran the event was such an unabashed EXO stan and we would spend half of the night drunkenly talking shit about her not playing enough girl group songs.

it makes zero sense for me to still have this chip on my shoulder, especially in a year where pretty much everyone agrees that girl groups dominated the industry, but I've been admittedly ignoring boy groups for the majority of my time as a kpop fan and it just started to feel unfair.

drag me for this but Blessed-Cursed got its claws into my brain. I was sick of not knowing what naega byeonhae meant. I liked doing the silly anime pose choreo during Thunderous. I'm like, vaguely aware of who the members of Seventeen are. wow. truly in my growth era. dont ask me about nct tho

who i'm watching for 2023

Fifty Fifty had a no-skip debut mini. higher is fantastic dizzying bubblegum pop, log in is?? cyber girl crush?? lovin me is smooth af, this mini is just so polished for a debut

CSR ohhh myyyy goddd are they filling such a sorely needed niche in kpop right now. I couldn't get into pop? pop the fuzzy effect sounded vaguely horror movie to me, but loveticon is wonderful I can't wait to see what they do next.

period

basically nothing i can say about these tracks, if you listen to them you feel the impact

le sserafim antifragile

ive after like

newjeans ditto

i hope 2023 is better for yall

kep1er good luck truly

itzy blink twice if you need help burying jyps body

loona unionize

closing thoughts

I got to see Twice play in new york and that was sick. thats all

K-Pop Spotlight: PURPLE KISS

This week, we’re highlighting PURPLE KISS to celebrate the release of their latest mini-album, “HIDE & SEEK,” and new single, Zombie. We caught up with the girl group to chat about their first comeback, personal aesthetics, and some very important seasonal topics. Check out our full interview below!

Tell us about your new mini-album HIDE & SEEK, and what it was like preparing for your first comeback.

Dosie: HIDE & SEEK is an album that raises questions about PURPLE KISS’ hidden identity. It follows the discovery of who we are without lies and shows the process in the purest form! Perhaps because it’s our first comeback, we were more nervous, and we worked hard in various ways to show you a better performance than when we debuted.

Ireh: Since it’s our first comeback, we wanted to show you how much we’ve grown compared to our debut.

Na Go Eun: We prepared the comeback with excitement to hurry back on stage and meet PLORY again.

Chaein: Our break was not short, and I kept thinking of our PLORY who were waiting for us and couldn’t wait to have a comeback.

Yuki: I was excited, nervous, and burdened at the same time. I had a lot of worries, but every time that happened, the members, managers, and family raised my self-esteem, and I was able to have fun while preparing for it.

Park Ji Eun: We prepared harder because we wanted to show PLORY everything as soon as possible, and we worked hard to become a more fitting image than when we first debuted.

How would you describe the differences between preparing for your debut and preparing for this comeback? Are you feeling more confident on stage these days?

Ireh: I think I knew what to practice and figure out what is important to prepare efficiently than when I debuted without knowing anything. That’s why I gained more confidence.

Swan: When I debuted, I didn’t know the specific ways to prepare because everything was new, but after making a comeback with some experience, I was able to prepare and practice much better, especially with things such as finding the camera or making facial expressions.

Chaein: I practiced more stage lives than when we debuted. I think I gained more confidence after debuting.

Yuki: I was busy running around because I had a lot to prepare and do in a small amount of time. While monitoring myself on the screen, I felt that the number of times I missed the camera decreased, my facial expressions improved, and I was definitely getting better.

Park Ji Eun: As the number of times we stood on the stage increased, I gradually developed tricks and worked on them by monitoring the stage. I’m working hard to show you a better performance.

Na Go Eun: I think I’ve gotten the hang of it more than when we debuted. I had time to reflect on myself by saying, “Oh, this is a bit disappointing.” And thanks to PLORY’s love and support, I gained a lot of confidence and am working hard.

Who and/or what influences your overall aesthetic—from your music to your style to your fashion sense?

Swan: I think in terms of music, movies, books, and visible things around me, or even my diary, are influences. When I’m trying to focus and make an actual piece of work, I usually look for movies and research for ideas.

Ireh: I don’t think there’s one clear influence for me. Right now, I think the members who live with me have a lot of influence on me.

Na Go Eun: I think it’s the internet. Ideas come to mind while looking at various places and people.

Chaein: I really like to read magazines, so I tend to look at a lot of clothes and trends in magazines.

Dosie: I usually get a lot of inspiration from colors and things in daily life. I base my nail art and fashion styles on colors or moods that I like. I think it’s similar musically.

Yuki: I tend to find my style by watching videos of models on YouTube.

Park Ji Eun: I think I look at magazines and articles, refer to our many seniors, and look at trendy or classic things to find out what suits me.

What brings you the most joy lately outside of PURPLE KISS?

Swan: We have a new car! There is a place in the car to charge my cell phone.

Ireh: Other than PURPLE KISS, I can’t think of anything else. These days, thanks to the members, schedules, stages, and PLORY, I think everything is fun.

Na Go Eun: These days, almost everything is fun because of the PURPLE KISS, but I’m enjoying watching Street Woman Fighter in between meals because it’s so cool.

Chaein: I’m most happy when I take a shower after our schedules.

Yuki: When I lie down on my bed after work.

Dosie: I think it’s fun because we can meet the fans often.

Park Ji Eun: Meeting fans through video calls!

If you starred in a monster movie, who would be the villain, and what role would each of you play?

Swan: I would be a villain like Harley Quinn and float between the east and the west like the Korean Robin Hood to become a righteous and wonderful villain with all the team members.

Ireh: The villains can be the bad zombies, and the members and I will play the role of good zombies that are friendly and close to people.

Na Go Eun: I want to be a captain-like hero and help people, or just become an attractive villain.

Chaein: I’m scared of many things, so even if I can’t play a big role, I’ll play a role that can handle timid attacks.

Dosie: I personally want to play the role of a hacker who controls everything from behind, but I think it would actually be really scary to really go up against a villain.

Yuki: I’m not actually really that smart, but in a movie, I’d want to be a character that’s like a smart advisor, haha.

Park Ji Eun: I’m not sure who would be the villain, but I want to play the role of a villain that only superheroes can hate.

What’s your favorite autumn activity and food/beverage?

Swan: For activities, I like catching fallen leaves and writing short phrases and storing them, sort of like scrapbooking, and for food and beverage, I like pears and bubble tea!

Ireh: It’s not something you can only do in the fall, but for activities, painting and for food, sweet potatoes.

Na Go Eun: I like to take walks. For drinks, earl grey tea!

Chaein: For me, taking a walk at night! And for food, it’s ice cream 😙

Yuki: I like solo strolls! For food, it’s soup! Warm food since the weather is getting cold 👏

Dosie: In autumn, I also like to have solo strolls, go to exhibitions, and visit cafes. And for food, autumn reminds me of sujebi (Korean traditional hand-pulled dough soup)!

Park Ji Eun: I like going to the Han River and watching movies at home for activities. For food and beverages, I like persimmons and smoothies.
